Fashion is such a fairytale and it is such a fantasy. And it's about metamorphosis and sort of changing yourself and playing a part that you want people to see.

More quotes by Marc Jacobs
I have no problem going on record with this and probably have gone on record with this before, there aren't that many people who I respect. There just aren't.
Marc Jacobs
My mind absorbs things in a funny way. I'm on planes quite a bit and I always take stacks and stacks of magazines and I go through them and tear pages out and fold them up, and they get stuck at the bottom of my backpack or whatever.
Marc Jacobs
Cigarettes and chocolate milk shakes are two amazing things.
Marc Jacobs
One thing that is exciting about fashion is the surprise element. People don't know what they want. They just know when they see it.
Marc Jacobs
We live in a world where people are really hungry for information, and they're not hungry for information on subjects that they're not interested in.
Marc Jacobs
It's sometimes said that I'm rebellious and I do things to push people's buttons, but I just like the challenge.
Marc Jacobs
Sometimes there are two very opposite directions, and we go with the stronger one at the end. It's an impulse thing, like, 'Oh, I love both so much, but it's got to be one or the other because the two don't work together.'
Marc Jacobs
I'm not good at hiding my feelings. I'm also not good at lying. I'm very open about everything.
Marc Jacobs
I always find beauty in things that are odd and imperfect - they are much more interesting.
Marc Jacobs
Grunge is a hippied romantic version of punk.
Marc Jacobs
It just seemed too weird to me. I don't know, maybe they were smoking a joint in the car downstairs from their parents' apartment. I had to go that far to put together a scenario of how they could have possibly recognized me.
Marc Jacobs
I'd like to believe that the women who wear my clothes are not dressing for other people, that they're wearing what they like and what suits them. It's not a status thing.
Marc Jacobs
I think beauty is youth it's energy. I'm attracted to imperfection, style, confidence, and experimentation. So beauty, to me, is really a lot of things. It's kind of unexpected-what surprises you.
Marc Jacobs
I think scent is sensual. I guess evoking a mood or a spirit is key, and I think with the women's fragrances we have evoked different types, moods or sensibilities of a woman - whether it's Daisy with the sweetness and the innocence or Lola which is more provocative, sexy and sultry.
Marc Jacobs
Sex is always good, isn't it? Well, actually it's not always good, but it's always a good thing.
Marc Jacobs
I like spending time at home. In Paris, people drop by and have a bite to eat, or they drop by and watch Friends on TV. I take my dog to the office there, and I walk to work sometimes.
Marc Jacobs
Design is a series of creative choices - it's a collaborative effort, an evolutionary process. You choose your fabrics depending upon what you want to say, then you work with mills to get those fabrics. Through the process, you realize what you want it to be.
Marc Jacobs
Awkwardness gives me great comfort. I've never been cool, but I've felt cool. I've been in the cool place, but I wasn't really cool - I was trying to pass for hip or cool. It's the awkwardness that's nice.
Marc Jacobs
I always wanted to be a fashion designer so I just have to remember that as long as I'm doing it I'm living the dream.
Marc Jacobs
Any opportunity to adorn oneself is human, and accessories are an easy way to do it.
Marc Jacobs
